Bayfront Inn - A waterfront boutique hotel with bay views and on-site restaurant in historic Morro Bay

Located steps from the Embarcadero, this 2-star Morro Bay hotel features 16 European-style rooms with premium bedding and unobstructed views of Morro Rock. The property, built in 1963, offers standard rooms of 110 square feet and deluxe rooms up to 170 square feet, each equipped with ceiling fans, window fans, and radiant heating. All accommodations include a Keurig coffee maker, small refrigerator, and complimentary bottled water. Frankie and Lola's, the cheerful yellow café attached to the inn, serves breakfast and lunch daily, featuring award-winning freshly baked cinnamon buns. The Bayfront Inn provides multiple outdoor lounging areas where guests can observe sea lions, otters, and spectacular sunsets. Within 0.5 miles, visitors can access Anchor Memorial Park, Fiona Bleu Gallery, and numerous waterfront dining options. The property sits 18.5 miles from San Luis Obispo County Regional Airport.

Pros

Pet-friendly accommodations welcome up to 3 pets per room with special amenities

Complimentary bottle of wine or cider for minimum 2-night stays

Walking distance to harbor restaurants, shops, and Morro Bay attractions

Direct access to local wildlife viewing including seals and sea otters

Cons

No elevator access to second-floor rooms

No air conditioning in any rooms

“For an unassuming motel, it's got the location nailed-Morro Rock practically in the front yard, and otter-watching a stroll away. The rooms prioritize functionality and cleanliness, and some thoughtful perks are included, such as free water and a morning cinnamon roll. It strikes a solid balance as a convenient and pet-friendly base for exploring the bay.”
